I recently got to rebuild my father’s old Marlin Model 60 that he had when he was a kid. Most of the internals got replaced and a Boyd’s stock installed. I wanted to put a better scope than the replacement irons – it’s an accurate rifle. So I ordered a Bushnell Dawn & Dusk for .22 and then had to find a good mount.Enter the Modkin rings. Not only were they machined well (or cast, not sure how they’re made) but they’re not too heavy, and they’re a great price for a plinking setup.They mounted very well. I’ve gotten loose-mounting rings before, these are solid. You remove the top of the rings with an Allen key that is provided, install the first ring loosely, place the second and check spacing and eye relief for where the scope will sit, then use the stop screw in the base of the second to ensure that the scope is held down by the dovetail bracket and the stop screw. Apply torque, install scope, and then the tops of the rings. It was super easy and rock solid.It should be noted that the Allen screws they send with the rings are cheap feeling, of course, and I was worried on two of them that I would strip them out just installing the scope. It didn’t happen, but be aware that they may need to be replaced – easy enough to do. YMMV.I also admit to stress testing these before putting them on the rifle – my father intends to teach my daughters how to shoot with this .22, so they have to be tough in case of an accidental drop or other unforeseen nonsense. So I mounted them on a dovetail-sized piece of metal mounted to a stock blank. I dropped them, threw them, and otherwise mildly abused them. Besides some cosmetic damage in the form of a few scratches, they didn’t break loose or damage the dovetail mounting. Excellent.For $13 I can’t complain about these rings past the Allen screws. I will update the review should anything happen with them, but as of now I am quite pleased with my purchase.
